I wanted to see if GP had a position on this issue so I gave them a call today. The person I talked with said that they (GP) did not design this airplane (guess someone else did ??) but there was not a problem with the wing joint design. I asked about the instances I had read about on this forum and he said there were cases where too large an engine had been put on the plane that resulted in a wing breaking, hhhmmmm. I explained that I was about finished with my Lancair and that I had used the stock dihedral brace but had also glassed the center section. I also stated that I would be REALLY *issed if I had a wing failure but he told me it should not be a problem. He also said that if I were to experience a failure that GP would be under standing and likely replace the plane. Well, go figure what all this means ??????
